One problem I see here is that SetTimer is only accurate to about 55 ms on Windows 95/98. This probably limits the framerate to 18 Hz or even less.
I don't know how the MS screensaver library works, because I use plain Win32. Instead of waiting for a timer, I just run in a big loop, and process messages with PeekMessage.
